Hi guys, new here

Post by Zedacabrb »

Hi all, I'm Michael.
I own a 1972 Ford F-250 4x4 with a 390 v8 with a 4speed trans .The 4speed will be swaped out for NV4500 5speed but that's another story. I have been looking around this site for awhile and i have decided to do a GM TBI conversion . Well I work in a wrecking yard so finding parts is a no brainer . I found a 88 Chevy truck that donated the computer an its wiring harness,sensors,distributor . Now I'm sitting here with a huge pile of wires trying to figure out what I need to keep an whats going to end up on the floor! I'm doing the build your own distributor out of a ford points distributor an a small cap GM HEI distributor as out lined here on this site. This build is going to take awhile like a year maybe cause i'm building a new motor an painting the truck plus the 5speed swap. I will take pic's as i go along here an of course asking a ton of questions cause this is my first efi conversion if this works great my 1978 bronco is next to get the GM TBI conversion
